NYC subway surveillance camera video feeds failed during shooting as MTA moves to beef up system

A server problem darkened the camera feeds at the 36th Street station on the N line, where alleged gunman Frank James ended his shooting spree, the officials said.

The feeds were also out at the 25th Street station in the R line, where the cops said James fled by train after his attack.
